My wife, my friend and myself have been grinding like there is no tomorrow. We just logged back on after attaching all of our new upgrades ready as all get out to use the ship we amended and upgraded yesterday. come back, the ship is gone, we all spawn on different islands, and have no idea what to do. Please tell me there is a way to get into our SQL and revert some part of the code.
#PLEASE HELP....Everything is gone

please send me your world save file and i can take a look
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\LocalLow\Bossa Games\LostSkies\SaveData\[steam id]
it'll be named something like SaveData_World_0.sav
you can either post it here, my community forum thread, or dm it to me
im struggling with the pathing not seeing it there
Why do you need their steam id?
i don't, that's just the path structure
the save file is enough
i do need the file though
Replace the existing save file with the one makred prev.
marked
i do not have app data after user and my user is owner
the directory is hidden
Yes, its a hidden directory
to protect the PC used who doesnt know how that works.
there is no prev, i think you're thinking of the player log file
Its a very sensitive area of a pc
Yes, that log file is the first thing to look at .. .as it shows where the error occured
i don't need the player log, i need the world save
although i imagine it can't hurt sending it to bossa so they can track down why ships are poofing
I would first say to Verify the steam game in the steam game properties?
it won't help, the issue is the ship is gone
IF this person does not know about the hidden files in a PC, its best to presume that those areas wouild likely confuse them.
tried twice
anyways, i digress and will back away from this topc for the poster to get help as asked
Bye
my coding experience is strictly in game development. as far as SQL oriented tasks i mainly paid someone else to do that XD
but my pathing is not the same
C:\Users\Owner\AppData\LocalLow\Bossa Games\LostSkies\SaveData\
i have nothing called locallow
oh?
what's in appdata then?
check the other directories in there. either way, you're looking for that bossa games folder
which ones do you want recovered? Sheila, ship, iiRWiiN, Fast? or all of them?
if we did all of them how would they be spawned? could you place them all close by docked? that would be amazing
i'll throw them next to the ark in the starting zone
my buddy spawned near one of the docks and he said even the dock was gone
you are a literal gangster
i cannot thank you enough. we were trying to figure out what game to play today after work and were at a loss haha
are you all in need of testers / devs / admins or are you all set with a solid team?
ships recovered
Nicely done @long sleet, KUDOS to ya
replace your old file with this one, could make a backup of your old file, whatever
please check and confirm and if all is well, please report results in my community thread, thank you. #1370919837936914543 message
i'm good, thank you though. feel free to recommend me to your friends!
@long sleet is this issue of MP sharing being addressed at the next hotfix?(I hope) ? Do you have info about this?
i know as much as everyone else, just bracing for all of my mods to super break from this week's game update, haha
Ive heard of this kind of thing in this game, but never witnessed it first hand.
YOU ROCK! What do you mean by recommend you to my friends?
if there's other people with poofed ships
the biggest issue for us is the flying and getting killed
it starts a loopghole of terrible things
seeya in gen chat ... again... well done NInes
do i need to start a diff ticket for that?
while flying, we have to grapple and tuck in the ship and pray we dont die
it happens every single time we fly
probably throw it in here #1373071583815532667 message. someone made a quality of life thread
somebody dies, there lootbag goes to the bottom of the map, you have to free fall over and over again until you find your bag at the bottom of the map, swing on it for about 20-45 minutes depending on your skill to where you can get bugged on top of it long enough to transfer all to your inventory and all you can take back to the ship is what you can get in your belt while falling for 30 seconds
haha...yeah
66% of the time it is the driver
the only thing we have had luck with is the passengers staying mounted
they have an update coming this week, hopefully it improves things
things get a bit problematic with multiple people in your game, desync, lag, and whatnot. but bossa talked about working on those issues
we are loading the game back up now, will we all spawn there? or be connected to a core?
you may want to find the person with the beefest system to host your games, that'll help with the lag issue
no idea. you can check, if you're nowhere near the starting island, i can just fly the ships over to you
i have a 4080, i9-13900k, 32gb ram
start a public game and i'll fly a ship to you
we are loaded in
any preference which ship you want flown to you?
thank you again. im trying to explain to my wife everything will be ok. shes stressed because she spawned in dead and lost her shards
the main one please with the 2 galleon sails
hmm, did you replace the save file? i don't see your ships
go ahead and replace the save file and let me know when you start another public game
i can help your wife recover her shards too
im not sure the capabilities of your admin/devtool
i have so many scripts that could be applicable to this game
holyyyyyyyyyyyy
you teleport?
we are flying throught the air!! hahaha
yeah, finicky. my bad
try to get to solid ground and i'll fly to you
game loves that desync
if you're worried about loss, just alt f4 and reopen the game
so it doesn't save the character changes
ok, let me know when you're back
and im hoping popsicle was with you otherwise all our stuff is on tutorial island XD
it should be fine, everyone disconnected
after i deliver the ship, i can help recover whatever things that were lost (if you remember)
hopping back into your game
ill be honest, i had half an inventory full of schematics we went out and got because of our attempt of killing the herald went terrible with 8k damage against 1mill health
im loaded up
but as far as what i had i have no idea i think we had a blue cannon was the only thing that would have helped from my understanding. hopefully the sails and everything stay upgraded that was the alst thing i did before getting off
which ship am i taking to you?
which one is that? top? left? right?
top
thank you
oh wait
that was the main ship and it does not have 2 galleon sails 2 windforged ascents and 2 squareframe pacesetters
what's up?
which one should i take to you?
uh
it looks like there is only one with engines so i guess that one :/
well i see two whatever is fine brother they cant even load in
i'll take the one that says Fast?
whatever is fine brother. the main one in the pic should work
im trying to keep spirits up for my friends XD
i love this game
i don't see any loot bags about, just get me a list of items you want and i'll get them for you when i deliver the ship
i'm 6500 away going at 15 knots, so you have time
I really appreciate it.
if you could just hook us up with some top tier sail and cannon schematics and the stuff to make them please. we had that blue cloth and pure zinc/iron used to make most of the stuff.
the blue stuff for ar / cannon / sails is where we were getting us back to that popint would be greatly appreciated. i dont know what is past that point but we have simply been gearing up to take on the herald for 3 days
bro throw something on it to make it fast af you can do whatever you want to my ship
the weight on that was terrible
one of my buddies has to get off soon so whatever you need to do
wife's POV
heading over at 30 knots now
you need a ping at the starting ark so you can know where to fly for your other ships?
yes please
ya se a solucionado el error de que te desconectaba y eliminaba todas tis contrucciones baules naves etc? lo deje de jugar porque cree 3 mundos y en todos se me eliminaron mis cosas
no, pero si me envías tu archivo guardado, puedo ver si puedo recuperar tus cosas.
hopefully google translate translated well enough
he was asking if the poofing bugs were fixed. they weren't
can you place a ping, juice?
hold p, so i can know wher to fly to
i'm like 1500 away from someone. no clue who it is
pero entonces si vuelvo a avanzar y ocurre otra vez el error seria lo mismo no?
it is us\
can you please change the duration of pings?
i have to ping on average 7-10 times for my wife to find where i go haha
yeah, but you can mitigate this with mods.

there's also this as a non-modding solution #1367365484848091186 message
ok gracias pero probablemente lo mejor sea esperar a que el problema se solucione de todas formas muchas gracias por la atencion
ship delivered. let me know what you want and i'll spawn it in
top tier cannons/sail/engine schematics and the mats to use them please
feel free if you want anything recovered from your other world saves.
ok
we can figure out the rest with the grind i appreciate the hell out of you
that is so weird the save point that came from. the banshees are gone
im sure you will hook us up whatever is fine
i have no idea what's good. go ahead and empty the box
i just picked whatever had the higher id
empty the box, please
all the cool kids wear skelly suits
what material do you want? just a bunch of ingots or something?
shards?
wood?
yeah ingots, wood and cloth were the main components
have a preference on wood?
the vlue version of the one that starts with an "R" is all i remember
blue*
rod or something
whatever is fine boss
or ash, pine, whatever
we will be happy with whatver kind of wood i dont remember which one was the lightest
i forget. gave you a bunch of wood. can you check if htere's anything else you want?
there is a large amount of cloth. i dont see the titanium or the wood
i'll toss over more titanium and wood
i think one of us grabbed titanium but everything is so bugged rn
this is what all of our screens look like XD
haha, you guys dropped a bunch of random stuff
it spawned like 800 tomanas haha
no when you spawned stuff
wtf, that's so weird!
our pockets overflowed and duped that stuff x800 or something haha
only the schematics
did the schematics at least work?
gotcha. i do not see any cannon or ar schematics btw
try the box i've grappled
see if those schems work, i'll toss over some cannons after
make sure you make a character save backup before you quit this session in case this is an icarus moment
just copy the character files somewhere
if things go south, then you can just overwrite and we'll do this again (minus the tomanas)
lmao want me to save and exit?
not yet
copy your file somewhere first
then save and exit
so you can make sure your character still loads
it says last updated 45 mins ago
that's fine. just copy the current file somewhere
yeah, copy the character 0 and 1 somewhere on your system. you can remove them once you're sure your character is still stable
sure. you got everything you need?
oh lastly did you do the assault rifle schematic?
crap crap crap
more importantly we need the tech briefs to upgrade these schematics
sure
then we are saving and calling it a night
btw, let's play it safe and restore the world to the file i gave you before. i'll fly the ship back to you
i don't know the ramification of these tomanas
can we save and do that tomorrow? we are out of time
sure, want the tech briefs then?
ok, just gave you all the tech stuff.
you good? make sure your character still loads!
and restore your world to the file i sent you earlier. you should still have all the stuff i gave you since that stays with your char data
or you can see if the tomanas don't cause any issues
i don't know. either way, the rest of your ships are on the starting island
when you left the ship fell out of the sky haha
